Chapter 179 No Funny Business

• Matteo couldn’t help but enjoy the surprise on Emily's face when she found out where he lived. He was amused by his own reaction, unsure why he felt so compelled to impress this captivating woman. He even left his date alone in the hotel, that hot girl he had planned to have a wild night with, just to be with Emily— knowing full well she wouldn’t fall for his charm or jump into bed with him at the first chance. Yet here he was, ready to offer his help. As he noticed the blend of shock and horror on Emily’s face, instinctively, his gaze followed hers to see what had caused it.
• He saw one of his previous secretaries sprawled out on the sofa. She didn't even have a single piece of clothing.
• “Fuck!” he cursed in frustration, frowning with embarrassment. “Emily, I can explain,” he tried, but she didn’t give him a chance. Hurt and anger were written all over her face as she bolted toward the elevator, leaving him in the mess he'd created.
